You reversed the problem description from your first post. If this is the correct description of your problem, then this is well known; it was published in the first team update.

See http://www.usfirst.org/sites/default...structions.pdf

But you said you already "fixed" the flat cable. Did you test it before fixing it? Not all cables were bad. That's the only thing I see that might be the cause. Try unfixing it, or buy a new one from a local computer shop.
